ISBN: 0548064334
Publisher: Coward, McCann

Further vicissitudes in the Wadelton family (My Mother Is A Violent Woman) as 14 year old Tommy Tells All -- he knows, or has heard -- about his father, who was ""bad word"" if he wanted to be an architect, who fell in love with a married woman, who did get into the army and stayed there, and married his love, now a widow. Though father is the focus, mother is not slighted -- in the least, for without her exciting presence how could father be a quiet man? There are many spots of fun with not too deliberate humor, and this makes a good supplement to the earlier book.
